Then don't use google analytics.

It’s very easy. 512kb can fit a whole novel in epub format. And HTML is a very verbose language.

Back in the early internet, nobody had enough bandwidth to transmit 512 kB in a reasonable time, so clearly it has to be possible.

> For e.g., if someone uses Google Analytics, that alone comes to 430kb (which most people do)

Perhaps someone might not use Google Analytics. Perhaps someone might apply 430kb to actual content instead.

> Not sure how a site can fit in that club?

That's the challenge

There are plenty of anaytics options at <1% that size.

I've never used it. Some browsers even honor that stupid beacon header now too
